Candice from Paraparaumu

Kia ora friends,

To celebrate our 25th anniversary, L'Arche Kapiti in Paraparaumu East is having its first ever Open Day on Sunday 10 September from 11:45-3:00 pm. Drop in for a free sausage sizzle and complimentary tea/coffee. We'll have items for sale as well: cake slices, plants, L'Arche candles, jewelry and more. Bring the kids along for face painting (koha) and a trampoline. We have some beautiful gardens you can check out as well.

L'Arche Kapiti is an intentional community where people with and without intellectual disabilities share life together. We hope to see you there! The address is 5 and 6 Te Aroha Way (formerly Jean Vanier Way), right across from Impact Hub. For more information, contact Candice at 027 307 2477.

Poll: Is the increase in disability parking fines fair?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In October, the fine for parking in a designated mobility car park without a permit has jumped from $150 to $750—a 400% increase!

The goal is to keep these spaces open for those who truly need them. Do you think this big increase in the fine is fair? Share your thoughts below.

Heirloom Tomatoes, Zucchini and Cucumber Plants at Waikanae and Otaki Markets

Val from Otaki District

Rain, wind and cold - just what these veggies don't like! However, better times are on the way and you can get a head start if you have a warm sheltered spot to nurture these seedings. They are coming along well in spite of the conditions.
We'll be at Waikanae tomorrow morning OR come see us at the massive Market and Camping Expo at Otaki on Sunday from 10.00am to 4.00pm. There will be a lot going on, plenty of entertainment and foodtrucks for sustenance, plus the usual array of quality stalls.
So came and check us out. Even if you are not ready to plant just yet, we can offer advice on varieties and cultivation. If you would like the full ;list of tomato varieties available, please PM me.
